Is existence of a limit cycles an obstruction for a vector field to be a global Jacobi field?

Is there a Riemannian metric on $S^2$ and a vector field $X$ on $S^2$ with the following two properties? The vector field $X$ is globaly a Jacobi field in the sense that for every point $x\in S^2$ t …

Algebraic independence of limit cycles of Lienard equation

It is well known that the Van der Pol equation $$\begin{cases} \dot x=y-(x^3-x)\\\dot y=-x \end{cases}$$ has no an algebraic limit cycle. According to this fact, we search for a related questio …
